The point doesn't stand at all. You have this narrative where people are called morons because they're conservative. And yet one of you're examples is a socialist. Maybe conservatism isn't the common thread.

Again, I don't think, despite being Czar of Everything, you get to determine a "marginal tax" for someone else. Say it's 3% after 250k. Guy makes 350k. 3k extra in taxes. Not sure he thinks it's "marginal". He earned the money, you did not. Seems like he has a better feel for "marginal" with his money.
